Adventures in Prayer: A Carmelite Trilogy

One of the most respected and adventurous of writers on the mystical traditions of Christianity, himself a Carmelite, Noel Dermot O'Donoghue has gathered together his definitive reflections on the three great mystical doctors of the Catholic Church: St. Teresa of Avila ("Women of Vision"), St. John of the Cross ("Man of Fire") and St Therese of Lisieux ("Child of the Little Way"). These inter-related and inter-woven essays are the mature fruit of a lifetime, written in the richly poetic way that readers have come to associate with this modern master of Celtic Christianity.
